Microbes support normal blood production! Authors in this recently published article report on the microbes and microbial metabolites missing from pediatric patients with antibiotic-associated neutropenia. @TheKingLab 👉bit.ly/4fUXyWe

Confused about possible biomarkers for blood cell aging? Check out this review by Wolfgang Wagner, including exploration of how transferable such markers are between mice and humans - Experimental Hematology exphem.org/article/S0301-472… @ISEHSociety @ELShematology
It’s here! Our first actual clinical study re: #microbiota changes in antibiotic-associated neutropenia. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… @TCHResearchNews @CAGTHouston @BCMFromtheLabs @BCMPedIDFellows
In future work we hope that we can use some of these metabolites to rescue antibiotic- associated neutropenia, making antibiotics safer to use.
A great collaboration with @baldridge_lab @WUSTL and Ritu Banerjee @VUMCchildren. Congrats to Josie Fernandez Sanchez who spearheaded this work and @ArushanaMak03 HannahYan Jeremy Schraw Rachel Rodgers and many more who contributed to this work @Hemasphere_EHA
Happy Halloween!!! Reasons to work at a children’s hospital…@CAGTHouston @BCMFromtheLabs
Thank you @majetilab for visiting us @CAGTHouston @bcmhouston ! You blew us away with your cool technology and insights into AML pathogenesis and future therapies. I neglected to take pictures so sharing some seasonal fun instead.
Happy to share our work: BST2 facilitates activation of hematopoietic stem cells through ERK signaling - Experimental Hematology exphem.org/article/S0301-472…
Another piece of the puzzle in our quest to discover how interferons disrupt HSC quiescence and promote differentiation.
